CD Reviews

Great music from a forgotten artist
Charles Ford | Whittier, CA | 07/21/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I knew little about Freddie Redd until I read a review of this album in the All Music Guide to Jazz. It sounded great, so I went ahead and ordered it. All the accolades are justified, this is a great CD. Redd is an unjustly neglected jazz pianist, and his interplay with tenor great Jackie McLean is just superb. I plan to investigate the rest of Redd's (too few) albums as well."
